I'd recommend buying a full kit - Most Kooks come with the needed X/H pipe.

To answer your question, yes! They do sell the H or X pipe separately.
Or wait... Maybe only for the 3V S197? I'm not sure. But here's some kits that include the needed piping.

For the record, AmericanRacing headers are great as well!

I dunno about the H, but they make an off road X which I am getting. And they say you can re-use the manifold gasket and to use SENSOR SAFE high temp RTV silicone on it. Use only minimal amounts. I've heard the kooks gaskets suck and to throw them away.

Headers are what replaces the stock exhaust manifolds, they are basically a tubular manifold instead of a "log" type, and yes, there are plenty of mid pipes around to work with them, you could even have one custom made, but its hardly worth the cost.
